Linda, reborn in darkness

(Jessica's POV)

Jessica watches Linda as she sleeps on the bed. Jessica did not believe that Linda could become more beautiful, but she has. Jessica can't quite identify the changes (other than the obligatory paleness, the red lips), but there is definitely something. Jessica can't wait to see Linda's fangs.

She'll wake up soon. She'll understand she feeds Jessica assures herself. Jessica replays her decision to forcefully turn Linda over and over in her mind. She has her doubts, but hopes for the best. She'll love it. She has to.

It's dusk, Jessica notes. Linda will rise soon. She will be reborn.

Jessica leaves the bedroom, to discuss tonight with Linda's first meal.

"What are you going to say?" Jessica asks the nude young girl before her. Jessica found her on the street. She is a brunette, a little on the plump side but still attractive. Soft breasts to bite into Jessica thinks hungrily.

"Drink me, Mistress. Please, drink my blood. I want you too" the girl says, tilting her head to the side.

Good Jessica thinks, nodding at the enthralled girl. Jessica wants Linda's first to (at least appear to) be willing. First, she needs to experience the taste of blood. Then, there will be time for her to learn to the pleasures of the hunt.

"I'll call you when we're ready" Jessica says, going back into the bedroom.

(Linda's POV)

Linda's eyes fly open.

Linda remembers where she is: my bedroom with Jessica. She remembers last night: Jessica fed me her blood. She drained me.

Jessica turned me.

Jessica turned me!

Linda is angry. But most of all, she is hurt. She feels betrayed. She lifts her head, and sees Jessica sitting on the edge of the bed, beaming at her. Just lifting her head was agonizing for Linda. Her whole body feels stiff. She shivers, her head is throbbing. And the hunger. She's never felt anything like it before.

"Welcome back!" Jessica says cheerfully.

"How could you?" Linda croaks angrily. Jessica frowns.

"You'll love--" Jessica begins, but Linda cuts her off.

"You always resented Elizabeth for making this choice for you. For turning you against your will" Linda scolds. Jessica's eyes narrow momentarily, before she composes herself.

"You'll feel better after you feed" Jessica says plainly. "Joanna, can you come in here please?" Jessica yells to the other room. Linda sees a curvy young brunnette enter the room.

"Joanna is here to nourish you, Linda" Jessica says, riding off the bed to stand behind the nude human. Jessica reaches around, caressing the girl's soft breasts. Jessica licks the girl's neck.

"She smells so good, Linda" Jessica moans.

"Drink me, Mistress. Please, drink my blood. I want you too" the human says. Linda feels her mouth begin to water.

I don't want this Linda thinks angrily. How could she?

Jessica takes the human, Joanna, by the hand and leads her to the bed. The naked human sits on her heels next to Linda, and Jessica kneels behind the girl.

"Just a taste. You'll feel so much better" Jessica encourages. Up close, Linda can smell the girl -- can hear her heart pulling blood -- it's intoxicating.

"I'm not thirsty" Linda says, despite her gnawing hunger, turning away from Jessica and the girl. Before turning, she sees Jessica suppress an annoyed look, trying to maintain a neutral expression.

"Okay" Jessica says, unable to hide the disappointment in her voice. "No use letting this fine human go to waste"

Linda hears the girl yelp as Jessica bites into her. A thickly sweet, iron-y smell fills the bedroom. Blood Linda thinks. It smells amazing. Her fangs descend for the first time, painfully. Linda can't stop herself from turning to Jessica and the girl. She watches.

Blood drips down from the girl's neck, between her breasts, but only a bit. Fangs buried in the girl, Jessica watches Linda, gauging her reactions. Jessica withdraws her teeth from her girl's neck, and looks at Linda, blood on her chin.

"Are you sure? Maybe just taste a bit?" Jessica coaxes.

Linda feels her self-control weakening, her will power failing. The girl smells too good. The blood is irresistible.
